Spent a good 3 hours + here, so make sure you give yourself enough time. An immersive museum full of history, story telling and facts. Follow 4 characters as they take you through the years of WW2. Headsets available for an assortment of languages. Entrance ticket covers 3 sites and can be used over 7 days so no need to rush! Three ‘shows’ with 3D-glasses, special effects and wonderful animation really bring the whole period of WW1 and WW2 to reality. Sad tales are told so bring a hanky 🥹 The generation 45 production I found very interesting/emotional. Covers two soldiers journeys post war. I sadly lost my grandad in the conflict (buried in Belgium), so it really made me appreciate even more so what I lost from my life as his granddaughter 😢 Staff friendly, plenty of toilets available, cafe with hot/cold drinks and basic food has outdoor and indoor seating. Monument to the Americans quite powerful to see. We were unable to walk within it as it is currently being renovated. Parking flat and plentiful. Every vehicle costs £5 to park so a bit pricey for motorbikes, but it all goes to a good cause.

The museum was great as expected but what actually suprised me was the quality of food in the bistro. I expected it to be just a regular bistro not very good food and really expensive, the expensive part was true but I was really suprised that the food was actually good i reccomend almost everything on the menu exept for the sandwitches whitch are as expected bland but other than that its really tasty. If you are hungry after going through the museum dont waste your time trying to find a restaurant just eat there trust me you wont regret it.

Great museum. Bring a sandwich and water because if you are interested in this topic, you will stay for over 3 hours. Excellent exhibition of vehicles, weapons and equipment, as well as other legacies. If you don't bring food, there are restaurants as well as a ww2 themed restaurant. The exhibition also includes films from the war period. A very comprehensive museum, it will not leave fans indifferent. It is not bad to buy tickets online, and there is also the possibility of buying tickets for 3 museums, which I recommend. Parking for a vehicle is 5 euros.

Absolutely worth visiting. Wish we had had more time to be able to take in the whole museum. We had limited time as this was an impromptu stop. Make sure you have several hours to be able to spend here.

A Thoughtful and Unfiltered Look at WWII History As an American visitor, I found the Bastogne War Museum refreshingly honest—no sugarcoating, no censorship. It presents the complexity of WWII with depth and integrity, offering exhibits in multiple languages, both written and audio. The ticket includes an audio headset that auto-plays as you move through the museum. The narration follows four fictional characters whose wartime perspectives add emotional context. While this concept is creative, I found the constant audio distracting when trying to read the exhibits. The only part of the audio tour I truly enjoyed was in the immersive theatre sections, where it complemented the visuals beautifully. The museum itself is well-curated, with rich timelines, authentic artifacts, and a clear historical arc. What stood out most to me was the focus on post-war Europe—something many museums overlook. The Generation 45 section was especially powerful, shedding light on the Cold War era and the human cost of division behind the Iron Curtain. Though the ticket price might seem steep, the experience is absolutely worth it. My only real critiques: the dim lighting made some exhibits hard to read, and the audio storytelling, while ambitious, didn’t always enhance the visit. Overall, a well-executed museum that respects the gravity of history while offering a compelling, multi-layered experience.

Its good, some nice theatre settings. I was expecting more Bastogne/Foye specific, the details and notty gritty. It covers the whole war from 38-45 which is good if you don't know, then a secrion in the middle for the bulge.

Pretty pricy for a family of four, especially since there is very little for kids to do. There is mostly a lot of tales and films, less historical things to actually see and experience. I would have suggested kids under 12 yrs could enter for free. The additional parking fee is just over the top.

A fitting tribute to all the American troops who gave their lives. The memorial is free entry but the museum that occupies the same site is 22€ per person that added to the 5€ parking charge it does start to become expensive. The memorial and grounds are well worth a visit if you want to pay your respects for free and the first 20 mins parking is free.

Two years ago they were busy with the restoration, and now it's complete (although we couldn't discover where they restored it). Overall it is worth a visit when you are visiting the museum or if you are visiting Bastogne. It is a large monument to commemorate the Second World War.

Images from the Mardasson Memorial. Honoring the memory of American soldiers who were wounded or killed in the Battle of the Bulge. We should never forget.The museum was closed, but this monument brought tears to my sarcastic, cynical eyes. A great way to end our trip.

The Mardasson Memorial in Bastogne is striking, respectful, and deeply thought-provoking, honoring those who fought in the war. Visiting is definitely worthwhile, a powerful and moving experience. The upper deck wasnt open when we were there.

Its sadly closed for renovation but it has to be done so I dont see the reason for all of these 1 star reviews. But other than that its great its really majestic commemorating the sacrifices of thousands of soliders i would reccomend to visit

Impressive monument, but at the time it is closed and cordoned off, the crypt is open thou, sign mentions renovation should have been completed last year and I see reviews here mentions it has been open since

The movies (3) was very good, but they tell the story in a too complicated way. Hard to follow as an adult and the children barely keep up, even though they know history and have seen some of the related films and series.

A very, very interesting church, you can almost feel the medieval symbols displayed. Worth visiting, it's a place where people who love history will feel the fascination of the place.

Beautiful Church! Great Painting of Jesus and Peter walking on water. Also in the very back room a sculpture of Christ after the took himsown from the cross.

Lovely church in the heart of the town

Well worth a visit. Amazing ceilings.

A beautiful church that has been rebuilt after near total destruction from the war

We had a laugh about the fact somebody was hovering with the vacuum cleaner when older people tried to pray.. came back after a while when in was more silent

Nice church, mainly known from Band of Brothers.

Le Nut’s is a must-visit restaurant in the heart of Bastogne, known for its rich historical significance and strong ties to World War II. This popular eatery was a favorite hangout of Vince Speranza, a U.S. Army veteran of the 101st Airborne Division, who became famous for his wartime experience during the Battle of Bastogne. One of the highlights on the menu is the Vince Speranza Airborne Beef Stew, best enjoyed with an Airborne Blonde beer served in a signature helmet-shaped mug—an iconic souvenir available in local shops. The restaurant is not only known for its delicious food but also for its unique atmosphere, filled with military memorabilia and photographs of famous members of the Band of Brothers. Due to its popularity, Le Nut’s can get quite busy, but the friendly staff ensure a welcoming experience. Keep in mind that the restaurant only accepts cash, so be sure to come prepared. Whether you’re a history enthusiast or simply looking for a great meal with a fascinating backstory, Le Nut’s offers an unforgettable dining experience in Bastogne.

Do not come here if you are a tourist on a short time schedule! My friend and I sat for an hour and 15 minutes waiting for a salad and a burger. Some people on our tour were not served at all. After having told the staff we needed to leave due to our bus leaving soon, they rolled their eyes and said it was coming soon. This place needs an overhaul in management and a more competent kitchen staff. The food was of terribly low quality and extremely overpriced. Definitely a tourist trap. If you come here, only come here for a beer. The food and service are absolutely horrific. Also, this place is cash-only so we had to walk around town looking for an ATM which is extremely inconvenient considering this is a tourist town. The only thing Nuts about this place is the wait time!

Had a beer and my friend had a sandwich. It is a bit tourist trappy. The location was perfect as it was right in front of a car show that happened that weekend. Probably worth snapping a photo here or a quick drink or seat. But find somewhere else to go eat and spend more time if you want to try local culture. Also the name is a classic reference to the American general who refused to surrender. He just said, “Nuts” when asked to surrender by Germans during battle of bulge in Bastogne.

A great and funny place in Bastogne. I'm not often in the area, but I'll greatly make a detour. Good food. Also one of the rare places where you get good French fries. :-)

After that breakfast we vere full for all day 👏 Delicious soup of the day, tasty burger filled with sweet, baked onion served with really good french fries and good omlette (if the bacon would be more crispy, that would be perfect!). Also very nice service, speaking in English 😊 Thanks!

Cute place. Food was good. Not great but good. However, price on the receipt did not match the in person menu or online menu. When my husband brought it up to the owner (as it was a big difference) he said they recently updated their prices but not the menu. If this is the case I'd suggest letting the customer know upon ordering as this is a cash only establishment and when you're pricing what you're ordering and then have to run to the atm because there is a 30€ difference its not ok.

A great place for meat lovers. I can especially recommend their speciality, pork knuckle with mustard sauce. A huge piece of tender and delicious meat. Also, the place has a great vibe with a lots of relics and pictures showcasing the old WW2 days during the Battle of Bulge. The service is also great, the prices are resonable, so there is nothing to complain about.

(Translated by Google) We had a great evening with family in a very pleasant setting. The 3-course menu was surprising, but excellent and well presented. Julien and his team are very friendly, welcoming and warm. We will definitely return. (Original) Nous avons passé une bonne petite soirée en famille dans un cadre très agréable. Le menu 3 services était surprenant, mais excellent et bien présenté. Julien et son équipe sont très aimables, accueillants et chaleureux. Nous y retournerons plus que certainement.

(Translated by Google) If you have time to waste and money to spare, this is the ideal place. Allow about fifteen minutes for someone to deign to take your order and bring you the 4 simple drinks. A waitress who doesn't understand the beer we're asking for even though it's the 4th one written on the menu: "I've never heard of that." Has she ever read the menu? And the latter is served to us, 6 months out of date... The waiter disdainfully retorts that we should have drunk it because it was still good. No excuses, everything is normal and I had to wait a while before being asked what I would like instead. And, by the way, it was knowingly served to other people afterwards. "There's no point in specifying that it's out of date." Finally, what can we say about the €9 appetizer board? 6 olives, 6 cheese cubes and 6 small slices of salami. We were waiting for the camera, it never arrived 🙂. (Original) Si vous avez du temps à perdre et de l’argent en trop, c’est l’endroit idéal. Prévoyez une quinzaine de minutes pour qu’on daigne prendre votre commande et qu’on vous apporte les 4 simples boissons. Une serveuse qui ne comprend pas la bière qu’on demande alors que c’est la 4e écrite sur le menu : « je n’ai jamais entendu ça ». A-t-elle déjà lu la carte ? et cette dernière nous est servie périmée de 6 mois… Le serveur nous rétorque avec dédain qu’on aurait dû la boire car elle était bonne quand même. Aucune excuse, tout est normal et j’ai dû attendre un moment avant qu’on me demande ce que je voudrais à la place. Et, au passage, elle a sciemment été servie à d’autres personnes par la suite. « Ça sert à rien de préciser qu’elle est périmée ». Enfin, que dire de la planche apéritive à 9€ ? 6 olives, 6 cubes fromage et 6 petites tranches de salami. Nous attendions la caméra, elle n’est jamais arrivée 🙂.

We had an amazing time at Nikos's ! Food was beyond delicious and staff were really friendly. Best greek restaurant we’ve been to so far! Well served, good taste and beautiful presentation! Thanks for this great evening

Super nice fresh really Greek food and nice people in clean environment. We'll be back.

Very nice Greek restaurant. The waiter was beyond helpful despite the language barrier, it made for a challenging but fun evening.

He has the best pork gyros I have ever tasted in Belgium in my 3 year tour and I would dare to say in Greece also. It has also a variety of other meats but the gyros is a must.... Try it

Slow service and the meat was not entirely fresh. Waited for 1,5 hours for them to make us 3 skewers with fries.

Super Delicious! 🇬🇷

The food and service were great! Highly recommended!

(Translated by Google) Very good traditional Belgian cuisine, the prices may seem high but the quantities are accordingly. Small downside, there was only one carbonade left. Very good service and nice atmosphere. I recommend without reservation 👌 (Original) Très bonne cuisine traditionnelle belge, les prix peuvent paraître élevés mais les quantités sont en conséquence. Petit bémol, il ne restait plus qu’une seule carbonade. Très bon service et ambiance sympa. Je recommande sans réserve 👌

(Translated by Google) Recommended in Bastogne, good food, accessible menu, playground outside and play area inside for children. High chairs available. Only the service was a bit unfriendly. (Original) Aanrader in Bastogne, lekker eten, toegankelijke menu kaart, speeltuin buiten en speelruimte binnen voor kinderen. Kinderstoeltjes aanwezig. Enkel de bediening was een beetje onvriendelijk.

(Translated by Google) Worthy of a recommendation, albeit with reservations. A special mention should be made of a special from the kitchen, which you can't expect in this price range. However, it's convenient. The menu offers an appealing selection. The food is very good quality, tasty, but not outstanding. The fries, however, were terrific. The service is friendly, but a bit overwhelmed – we had fries with three dishes, which only arrived after we asked for them and 10 minutes after we finished our meals. The play areas for children are very nice. The interior looked very nice, the exterior area was still a bit bare. (Original) Eine Empfehlung wert, wenn auch mit Einschränkungen. Lobend zu erwähnen ein Gruß aus der Küche, den man in dieser Preiskategorie nicht voraussetzen darf. Allerdings Convenience. Auf der Karte eine ansprechende Auswahl. Eine sehr gute Speisenqualität, geschmacklich gut, aber nicht hervorragend. Die Pommes waren allerdings grandios. Der Service ist freundlich, aber etwas überfordert - wir hatten zu drei Gerichte Pommes, die erst auf Nachfragen und 10 Minuten nach dem Essen kamen. Sehr sympathisch sind die Spielgelegenheiten für Kinder. Der Innenbereich sah sehr gut aus, der Außenbereich noch etwas kahl.

(Translated by Google) L'Étape is one of those places you'll happily return to! The staff is friendly, the setting is pleasant, and the dishes are as good as they are generous (special mention to the chef's mussels!) It's a friendly place, also perfect for families with children. A sure bet that I recommend without hesitation. (Original) L’Étape fait partie de ces adresses où l’on revient avec plaisir ! L’équipe est chaleureuse, le cadre agréable et les plats sont aussi bons que généreux (mention spéciale aux moules du chef !) C’est un endroit convivial, parfait aussi pour les familles avec enfants. Une valeur sûre que je recommande sans hésiter.

(Translated by Google) It’s a great restaurant, both in terms of what’s on your plate and in terms of the atmosphere and the service. The dishes are cooked with local products and the quantities are generous. Small downside: I took a suggested dish, pesto pasta with burrata and I found the price a little high even if it was good. As for the service, if I could give an extra star for the girl who took care of us, I would have done so. She took great care and when I asked for a cappuccino with milk foam for dessert, she told me at the time that unfortunately they don't know how to make it. No worries, I had some crème fraîche. But when it was time to serve it, she managed to serve me one with milk foam. It is becoming increasingly rare to find an establishment with such service. And finally, another detail that is very important: the children’s areas. The establishment has a terrace where a small playground is accessible. An interior space is also provided for the little scoundrels. (Original) C’est un super restaurant tant dans ce qu’il se passe dans votre assiette qu’au niveau de l’ambiance et du service. Les plats sont cuisinés avec des produits locaux et les quantités sont généreuses. Petit bémol : j’ai pris un plat en suggestion, soit des pâtes au pesto avec une burrata et je trouvais le prix un peu élevé même si c’était bon. En ce qui concerne le service, si je pouvais mettre une étoile supplémentaire pour la jeune fille qui s’est occupée de nous, je l’aurai fait. Elle a été au petits soins et lorsque j’ai demandé un cappuccino mousse de lait en dessert, elle m’a répondu sur le moment que malheureusement ils ne savent pas en faire. Pas de soucis, j’en ai pris crème fraîche. Mais au moment du service, elle s’était débrouillée pour me servir un à la mousse de lait. Il devient de plus en plus rare de trouver un établissement avec un tel service. Et enfin, autre détail qui a toute son importance : les espaces pour enfants. L’établissement a une terrasse où une petite plaine de jeu est accessible. Un espace intérieur est également prévu pour les petites canailles.

(Translated by Google) The restaurant is magnificent! There were 4 of us and we each had different dishes, everything was delicious!! The service was perfect and a little extra if you have children there is a play area for them :)) (Original) Le restaurant est magnifique! Nous étions 4 et nous avons chacune pris des plats différents, tout était délicieux!! Le service était parfait et petit plus si vous avez des enfants il y a un espace jeu pour eux :))

(Translated by Google) I'm finally posting a review for this tried and tested restaurant, which I've been using for some time. We discovered this restaurant by chance, trying to avoid the traffic jams in the center of Bastogne. We enjoyed the food and the location so much that we've been back three times since then. (Original) Je mets enfin un commentaire sur cette adresse testée et approuvée depuis un certain temps. Nous découvrons cette table un peu par hasard en voulant éviter les embouteillage du centre de BASTOGNE. Nous avons tellement apprécié la cuisine et l'endroit que depuis lors nous y sommes retournés trois fois déjà.

High-end restaurant, offering a selection of menus with various courses where all dishes surprise you in a unique way, from sweet salty mixes to japanese techniques, and detailed presentations. Great service, despite an austere interior design. Recommended for special occasions.

Very nice cuisine, seasonal and great to have the 3 menus. Food was lovely, just the interior and atmosphere is not my thing

Today I was here as hist for a large group of business people. Welkome and atmosphere are good. The food is lovely

Excellent high class cuisine and very nice, seasonal menus

Excellent restaurant, good service, very good wine and oenologist

Very good food in beautyfull restaurant

Food is so delicious 😍😍😍

Awesome, better than I thought it would be. Their variety of equipment was amazing. The main display hall was kinda dark. The military guide was very knowledgeable and friendly you could tell he really enjoyed his job

This is a fantastic WWII museum with various displays both inside and outside. It isn't very big overall, and you could easily see everything in an hour if you wanted to, but I took a little longer as I like to take my time and read about stuff. If you like WWII history and you're in or near Bastogne, be sure to check this place out, and if you like to take your time, give yourself a couple hours here!

Awesome display! If you want an extensive overview of military hardware, this is the place to be! The sliding doors of hal 1 open and you are greeted by the smell of engine oil and grease, AND a 152mm pointing right at you :) It's really worth every euro of the entrance fee, MUCH visit when in Belgium (or central Europe for that matter ;) )

Really nice exponation. ISU 152, IS 200, several Sherman incl different guns. Lots of howitzers and trucks. I was really satisfied with their collection. Worth a visit!

The best museum in Bastogne (must see), with a lot of armed vehicles and tanks in perfect condition. They've got vehicles from the Soviet Union, France, England, America and Germany.

Fabulous restoration work of the WWII vehicles

Would have had a better score but the main hall was closed when we went. If you like military hardware, not just tanks, this is worth a visit. And there is an excellent Virtual Reality view of the inside of a Sherman Tank.

Highly recommend! History took place here and the museum is one of it’s kind. It took us almost 2hrs with all the details and short films.

This was definitely worth a visit to Bastogne, to hear and see the story behind ‘Nuts!’ It was a creative display as you walked through the war room. Towards the end of the experience, you can leave a message on the living NUTS art display.

The exhibition focuses clearly on a key event: the American rejection of surrender, through well staged back-screen projections in the basement that recreate the atmosphere and furnishings, of which nothing remains. The ground floor exhibition is sensibly limited to the related developments in the field, with clear interactive displays and a good selection of relevant original objects that are properly explained and set in context. A first class example of current thinking in the exhibition field, getting a lot from a little. Important: visit the main museum first to get the broader picture, then the war rooms, and lastly the virtual battlefield in the woods. Preferably on two days.

The Bastogne War Rooms offer a fascinating glimpse into World War II history, with a particular focus on the Battle of the Bulge. I thoroughly enjoyed the museum, especially the engaging and informative videos that bring the historical events to life. The exhibits are well-curated, providing an immersive experience for history enthusiasts. However, while the War Rooms are impressive, I found the nearby Bastogne War Museum to be even more comprehensive and highly recommend it as well. If you're in the area, the Bastogne War Rooms are definitely worth a visit for a deeper understanding of this pivotal moment in history.

To find the entrance is a bit tricky, since the place where one arrives, seems like an abannoded place. Once inside the route and display and what can be seen seems to very well give an impression of the stories most don't really know. Excellent display and story telling, a bit much of video... yet so little. The last room before exit will be very touching as it touche me to tears.

The War Museum in Bastogne is a great visit if you're interested in WWII, Battle of the Bulge. Its comprised of 3 separate venues in Bastogne. The War Museum, The War Room & Bois Jacques battlefeld. The original battle foxholes are still there. I highly recommend it!

It was interesting. We had a combined ticket so it was a no brainer. It is divided it two sections the main floor with al kind of stories and the basement with the actual war rooms with a interactive guide. It goes to the main floor again with additional rooms with information.

The Battle of the Bulge, fought between December 16, 1944, and January 25, 1945, was the largest and bloodiest battle fought by the U.S. Army during World War II. One of the many tanks involved in this conflict was a Sherman tank from the 11th Armored Division, which was disabled during the harsh winter of 1944 in the village of Renuamont, Belgium. The 11th Armored Division, also known as the “Thunderbolt Division,” was activated in 1942 and played a crucial role in the Ardennes Counteroffensive. The division was tasked with pushing back the German forces that had launched a surprise attack through the dense Ardennes Forest. The extreme weather conditions, including heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures, added to the challenges faced by Allied troops and their armored units. The disabled tank in Renuamont serves as a testament to the intense combat that took place during the battle. Many tanks were lost on both sides due to enemy fire, land mines, or mechanical failures exacerbated by the cold. Despite these hardships, the 11th Armored Division fought valiantly, helping to turn the tide of the battle in favor of the Allies, ultimately leading to the defeat of Nazi Germany in May 1945.

Great piece of history sitting on the corner in Bastogne. This marks where General Patton brought his soldiers to help liberate the city. Explore the town and take in the sites.

We visited the 11th Armored M4 Sherman Tank, which is a piece of history in the square for everyone to visit. The plaque reads: "In honor of the valiant men of the 10th U.S. Armored Division who gave their lives for freedom in the 1944-1945 Ardennes Campaign and in the Bastogne Area". The 1145 kilometre marker of Liberty Road is also present.

Beautiful place, a strong remember for those who fought for freedom in WWII. The tank is very well preserved.

Excited to have found this U.S. Sherman tank as my father would have seen it while fighting at "Dead Man's Ridge."

Great representation of WWII History in the center of Bastogne showing the great sacrifices made during this era. Battle wounds are still evident on the Sherman tank itself also showcasing the devastating powers both sides possessed during this war.

If you visit the area you should definetly go there and visit the tank and the nearby statue. Some nice history for free

I thought this was tucked out of the way a little as it's in car park, and close to where motorhomes empty their waste water and fill up of fresh water. But the information board is full of info, and his craved head/face statute takes pride of place at the rear back corner.

Not a bad monument with a information board close by. Location is a car park in front of some flats

An interesting memorial to visit if you’re interested by WW2 and its events.

A tribute for a great personality like Gen. Patton. It's not very well signalized, could be much better promoted.

Great honour and respect to General Gorge Patton

Amazing historical information

Memorial to one of America's greatest generals. Unfortunately the city has encroached upon it and it now sits in a strip mall parking lot.

I went with my husband, kids, and dad in the afternoon on a Saturday. It was fairly empty and our waitress was nice. However the main issue I had were the bathrooms. Neither the men's nor women's had any toilet paper in any of the stalls, nor any paper towels. I let a lady behind the counter know and her response was a bit rude, saying they already knew. I went back about 30 mins later to wash my hands and still it had not been restocked. That's completely unsanitary and a complete fail on their part. The fact that one of our orders was never put in was the nail in the coffin for this place and we will not be returning.

We came here with a group of six. The staff were very friendly, the atmosphere was nice, and the drinks were good. Unfortunately, the food was overpriced for what you got. My Croque Monsieur was just two slices of bread with cheese and ham—not worth €9—and the other dishes at our table also felt too expensive for the portion and quality.

I stopped by a little café in Bastogne and loved it. The place felt cozy right away, but what really made it special was the service. One female server in particular stood out—so friendly, with excellent English that made chatting easy and fun. They even recommended what turned out to be the best waffle I’ve had in ages. Great coffee, great atmosphere, and truly lovely people. Really recommend.

Great! The crepes were delicious, with the chocolate sauce and ice creams! I really enjoyed it The service was very friendly and efficient! I was surprised at how quick they were despite the restaurant being full! The ambience is great! Young age customers anf tourists will love it! A bit cramped inside but it's no big deal. I like how the seats are decorated with military coats, it was cute!

Friendly, helpful staff. Lack of actual milk (they all seem to have creamers) and the flat white doesn’t seem to have reached Belgium!

Wonderful staff. Great food and coffee!!! Bravo!!!

Large variety in pastries and other food to enjoy with your coffee. Nice atmosphere and staff. Highly recommended!

Excellent

Wouaw !

Extra !

Tasty soup

(Translated by Google) Good sandwich and friendly service but I find that the price difference between "takeaway" and "eat in" is too great compared to other sandwich shops, even if the VAT rate is different. (sandwich at €6 vs. €8.50 on site, and coke at €3..). (Original) Bon sandwich et service aimable mais je trouve que la différence de prix entre "à emporter" et "manger sur place" est trop grande par rapport à d'autres sandwicheries,même si le taux de TVA est différent. (sandwich à 6€ vs 8,50€ sur place, et le coca à 3€..).

(Translated by Google) Excellent lunch today in Bastogne. I really enjoyed it. There was a long wait, but that's understandable, as the place is very popular. Go for it with your eyes closed!! P.S.: I had the crispy chicken. (Original) Excellent lunch aujourd'hui à Bastogne. Je me suis régalé, bcp d'attente mais ça se comprend, l'établissement a un grand succès. Foncez les yeux fermés !! Ps: j'ai pris un poulet croquant

(Translated by Google) It's always a delight to eat at this lovely restaurant. Plenty of choice, plentiful, and always on time for lunch, which isn't always easy when you only have an hour for dinner. (Original) Toujours un délice de manger dans ce chouette restaurant. Beaucoup de choix, copieux, et respectant toujours les délais au niveau du temps de midi, ce qui n'est pas toujours évident quand nous n'avons qu'une heure pour dîner.

Do not speak much English but we got by with our little French and pointing (typical English tourists). Very nice fries at a cheap price. Friendly staff.

Unbelievable...if ya eat the burger inside it´s 3,50 Euro more than takeaway. I got the baconburger for almost 10 Euro. The waitress forgot to put salad, tomatoe & Chorizo on it as was said in the menue. She had to ask her collegue if I was right, haha. And then the burger was the worst in my life. The french fries were soggy. Jesus...I thought belgian fries are the best in the world? No taste, way to expensive & bad service. Threw away half the food. My friend was disgusted as well. He had a bad cheeseburger. At least the washroom was clean. Today is the 04.01.2023!

Great Belgian chips

I don’t understand how this place has a four star rating. I’ve had a lot of vegetarian burgers in my life, but never one as dry as this one. My partner’s burger was very low quality meat. Fries were old. We were charged for fries and cheese sauce we didn’t order. Honestly probably one of the worst meals I’ve ever paid for.

Food was great. Very cute waitress working there.

A below average snack bar disguised as a restaurant. Horrendous food, bad service, outrageous prices. Fries looked ok and tasted worse. Burgers looked bad and tasted worse.

Really bad service, overpriced and bad tasting fries (oil tasted old and disgusting). Hamburger and fish Burger tasted not good. We couldnt even finish te meal it was that BAD!! Font waste your money here :( big disapointment

Very well done with the follow along videos on the app. It was surreal to be in the exact spot American soldiers were during WWII. Very peaceful and reflective. I hope this history is preserved for a long time to come.

If you are a Band of Brothers fan, this is a must see! These foxholes are where Easy Company 101st Airborne were. You can download an app and see some recreational videos which bring the place to life. There is a break in the trees near the last video spot and you can see where the 101st advanced into the village after they advanced out of Bastogne and where Lt Spiers did his run through the German positions to ensure the attack didn’t falter.

It was all a little confusing at first. The fenced off augmented experience part requires a museum ticket and is easy to find and park (free). You can see foxholes for free but authenticity is dubious however the setting is awesome if you want to get a feel for the fighting that took place here with easy company and others.

Please remember before you go there you need to go to the museum in town. Go through the museum and you get a free ticket to go in to the woods. We went straight to the woods and there was no way to get in

You can read all about what Easy Company went through but seeing the actual area is surreal. To imagine this in freezing temperatures with hardly any cover when even in a fox hole.

Remarkable to see the site of such bravery. Be aware you need tickets from the war museum to access the woods.

I've wanted to see this location for years and it is a must stop in Bastogne. You do need to purchase entry tickets from the museum first to enter the preserved site. This particular location overlooks the town of Foy which, for those who have seen the series, will remember. Amazing to see history preserved like this.

An amazing and touching immersion into the decisive days of the Ardennes battle and the liberation war. A genuine experience in the foxholes of the brave men who stood there, fought and gave their lives.

Very well kept, foxholes still in tact. Shame that you have to pay to enter, apparently it’s just a recent decision to include this site in the War Museum ticket package. I went on a sunny Sunday afternoon and it was not crowded at all. Maybe 3-4 other people there.

What a great experience. Downloading their app is totally worth it. It feels like you are in the battlefield with the american soldiers.

Part of WW2 history, also very picturesque, worth reading up on the history of the place in order to enhance your visit

I used to love visiting the Bois Jacques, to reflect. What a shame that it has become what it has. Today was my 4th time visiting Bastogne, and the Bois Jacques, my last visit dating back to 2022. I am disappointed. The Bois Jacques used to be one of those places that you needed to be particularly interested in a part of history to know of. It used to be open, no gate, no fences. One could visit it at any time of the day, or year. The fact that you now have to pay to access this wood is, for me, disgraceful. Not only does it now attract the wrong people -- those wishing to tick things off of their list of places visited -- but they are all on their phones. Watching a very underwhelming walkthrough of the area. I found both them, and the app, quite disrespectful towards the men that suffered and died there. Attempting to make this into one of those 'experiences' is not right.

Interesting experience with augmented reality taking you to the very place where war was taking place - and showing you the "foxhole reality" in your crll phone. Part of the Bastogne War Museum ticket.

While the foxholes are very visible, this is a tourist attraction with little respect given to the men who gave their lives here. Anyone is free to walk into, around, through, etc the foxholes while posing for photos. Very distasteful on an area where countless men died. A few modifications would make this site worth the visit including defined paths, notes about the solemn nature of the site, and preservation of what’s still visible.

If you have seen Band of Brothers, you must come and see this and Foy village.

A beautiful monument to 101th Airborne Division 506th Battalion Easy Company and their sacrifice in the Battle of the Bulge.

The whole area will WOW you. I can’t imagine what our boys went through defending this area in the winter. Worth the trip and walk around. Holes are there but probably not the same ones but the area didn’t change.

A well presented reminder of an extraordinary bunch of soldiers

Very nice memorial for the men of Easy Company. Well-maintained. Parking across the street, and it's also right next to a walking path from Bastogne.

The 101st Airborne Company Memorial is a beautiful and moving tribute to the soldiers who fought during World War II. It highlights their bravery, sacrifices, and the crucial role they played, making it a must-visit for history enthusiasts and Band of Brothers fans alike.

Whether your looking for a beautiful walk through the woods or a walk through memory lane, seeing the lives lost shivering in a foxhole during the battle of the bulge, this is an amazing place for a hike.

We had a nice afternoon in Animalaine. First there is a museum of wool, then a nice walk during which you can feed the animals, and lastly a little coffee amd a playground. Our toddler had a blast.

All you wanted to know about wool. A mixture of museum and zoo, very educational. You can take a long walk amidst all different sheep outside. They have also a small bar.

Nice place for a visit, specially if you're with kids or if you are tired from city life and you want to be closer to nature. We saw sheep's, goats, rabbits, pigs, alpacas and liammas here. But please take into account that animals are sleeping at lunch time. There is a playground with a sand, slides and swings. Cafeteria serves local (Belgian) beer, pancakes, sandwiches and tasting plate with local sausages and cheese.

Excellent.. lots of fun to feed the animals even though we have been young for longer😃

Loads of wool animals to feed and a little playground. Museum is interesting too.

So many different animals. Super nice people running the place.

Cool

(Translated by Google) Great place we visited during a family wedding. Very well run team by a lady (the boss I suppose), impeccable service and very professional staff. In my opinion, the foie gras lacked coarse salt and the duck breast was a little stingy with sauce (just my opinion). However, the cooking was excellent, which was impressive given the number of plates to be served! (Original) Chouette endroit que nous avons visité lors d'un mariage dans la famille. Équipe très bien tenue par une dame (la patronne je suppose), service impeccable et personnel très pro.

(Translated by Google) I just got my daughter married there. Extremely pleasant setting. Well-appointed rooms (it's not a castle so obviously it's not majestic but great all the same). Food of very good quality and in sufficient quantity (even a meal) to feed a hungry Ardennes teenager. Wine chosen (from the proposed list) of quality (Côte de Rhône). Excellent desserts and top of the line, 6-star service! Efficiency, discretion, smiling. (I'm just waiting for the bill to see if I change my mind! ;-))) (Original) Je viens d'y marier ma fille.

Desserts excellents et le top du top, un service 6 étoiles! Efficacité, discrétion, souriant. (J'attends juste la facture pour voir si je ne change pas d'avis! ;-)))

Amazing museum. Everything was done really well and wax models are so life like. Exceeded my expectations with lot of video and audio effects. Not just old stuff from WW2 this exhibition shows so much more.

This is a great museum. The exhibits were well displayed and the dioramas were excellent. Well worth the 14Euro entry fee. Free parking nearby. No need to visit the expensive tourist trap Bastogne War Museum, who even have the nerve to charge for parking.

If you are a fan of WWII, you must see attraction. If not, as well, you must see attraction. Located on 3 floors, there are so many things from WW2 and showing 101st Airborne story. All the manikins look like alive, well presented scenes of fighting and other situations. Bunker is something different, I must say.

An amazing collection. The wax figures bring the pieces to life. The bomb room feels like you are there.

Really good museum with lots of artefacts. The bombing simulation was a real eye opener!

Amazing museum. The bombing raid experience in the basement is incredible. A lot of artifacts from the war period very informative and well done spanning on all 3 floors of the museum.

Over the last 15 years I visited allot of world war museums all over France, Netherlands, Belgium,… but this is one of my favorite. Don’t expect vehicles or other big stuff, but do expect love to details and background stories. If you are in Bastogne with an interest in history you have to visit this place

Good butchers are tough to find.

Pretty park and green space with fountains, a small hedge maze, and some sculptures. We saw people enjoying the beautiful weather. There is also a tot lot at one end for pre-K kids.

Just a small park, nothing special to it. Nice to lay down in the grass a bit

(Translated by Google) Park of a good size unfortunately poorly maintained on these trails which has exceeded the shame. However, several nice green areas to play football, badminton etc. or just relax. A small play area for children so they can let off some steam (even if a little simple and old-fashioned) (Original) Parc d'une belle taille malheureusement mal entretenu dans ces sentiers qui a dépasser le honteux.

(Translated by Google) It was a very beautiful park. All users also observed good manners. There was no pet feces, so I was able to spend time with my 2-year-old child safely and happily. There were many cigarette butts lying under and around the benches. This was the only disappointing point.

(Translated by Google) It’s a shame that this place isn’t used more by the municipality. (Original) Dommage que ce lieu n'est pas plus utilisé par la commune

It's a cute museum. I particularly enjoyed the House of Legends.

An interesting museum, but the exhibitions are not so impressive. The most interesting is the one related to the fairytales.

The employee was very nice, although short, it was an educational experience. It isn't about the second world war but about the life of the people of Ardennen, also fun for kids. Most descriptions are in French but a quick google translate can help ofcourse ;-)

Nice museum, but a bit outdated.

Nice

Super

Super

Cool to see for a quick 5 min stop, from here you also have a view of the monument near the Bastogne war museum

Turret of an American tank which was hit by a least one shot. Most of the internals have been removed or destroyed in the impact or thereafter. Tank crews didn't last long in those days. Next to this was a memorial to 2 ladies - one nurse who was killed in Bastogne looking after US injured and the other also a nurse survived the same blast. Worth spending time reading about them.

It is a great monument of the second world war, there is also a hole in the turret, you can enter inside to see a bit tho it is all rusty and it is hard to breathe but on the outside it looks like a real Sherman turret, tho if you want to see the whole tank, go to the barracks or the war museum

Monument dedicated to the US 10th Armored Division veterans, because of the role taken by Combat Command B during the siege of Bastogne in WW2.

Not much to evaluate it is a tank turret on a pedestal

Tip Top

Super

most important: cash or creditcard only! what an experience, amazing service with a smile and some humor. creates an amazing vibe for the whole place. with on the house bruschetta when you go sit down and an on the house liquor for digestion when you're done eating. the quality of the food is really fine and worth the wait. it took a bit of time to get some dishes but like I said. worth the wait. happy I visited this restaurant. going home with a full belly and a smile. keep in mind that you only can pay with cash or creditcard, this isn't shown very well before you come in and you will see it on the menu.

Our meal was delicious and timely! We had the charcuterie board with cocktails, followed by pasta entrees, and then dessert with a pour of scotch. All courses were delightful, and the staff was exceptionally welcoming, even helping me work out my less-than-perfect French. I would recommend for any American visitor to stop here to feel welcome and at home.

Food, service and everything was exceptional. Traveled over UK and Europe was one of the best meals on the trip

Really nice Italian themed place. They still served French meals and steaks and burgers. Some staff speak English and were very helpful. Bring cash though, as they prefer it. Very nice! Best steak i have had outside of Australia 🇦🇺. Meals were not to bad priced and beer was fair priced.

Delightful meal for the evening. The staff is very friendly and eager to serve.

It's a really good Italian restaurant with some amazing food. I had a pizza, and my wife had a salad with shrimp. The pizza was excellent, and my wife loved her salad. Great service. We actually came here twice on our visit because it was so amazing!

The food was wonderful! Our group loved all of our meals. Services was excellent!

Very friendly, patient and helpful. Welcomed our dog. Charming interior. The food was delicious and very flavourful. Even my very picky eaters are everything!

Really great place to eat. Ben, the owner was a wonderful host, the food was fantastic and they even catered for a member of our party with a Gluten intolerance. Would definitely recommend as lovely place all round.

Really liked the place. Great food (vegan), friendly staff and cosy atmosphere. If you're not sure it is something for you, don't hesitate because it's great!

Very friendly staff, awesome food (the best Thai food we have had yet), and very clean (also with regard to covid 19). Much appreciated, thanks for hosting us!

Just Perfect the taste the service and the smile 😎

I came here for lunch and I was very impress by the Thai foods as I am Thai by myself. Pad Thai shrimp is the best to order. You have to try mango sticky rice too. The staffs are very friendly and the chef is very professional. Good location, easy to find parking.

DON’T TRUST THE HIGH RATING OF THIS RESTAURANT. Having been in many restaurants during my life, on several continents: Europe, Asia, North America, this is the FAR WORST customer experience. What was supposed to be a quite family lunch on a Sunday afternoon in the small touristic town of Bastogne, turned in to a disaster. A table for 4 was booked by phone, on arrival we were well welcomed but after that everything just went downhill on a professional level: 1. Owner said that he was told about a reservation for 3 and not 4, which was not true and didn’t change anything anyway. 2. The waitress that served us didn’t know the name of the dishes that were sold, just the numbers. She was not really welcoming and a bit clumsy. When asked if a starter dish can be transformed to a main, which is often possible in restaurants for an extra price, she got lost and said that there were not enough shrimps to do that. 3. We received our first dishes really quickly, which were 2 dishes to share for 4 people. This way of eating was not familiar to the employees, even though it is largely common in Asia. Therefore only 2 plates were given. 4. After our first dishes our long wait started, 1 HOUR for 4 main dishes, made out of simple ingredients such as rice, shrimps, chicken and noodles. After a SIMPLE AND FRIENDLY DEMAND of the owner/waiter, how much time is there left to wait? He completely lost it: -‘’ WHY, ARE YOU IN A HURRY? YOU CAME 45 MINUTES LATE AND EXPECT YOUR DISHES TO BE SERVED QUICKLY? THAI FOOD IS REALLY COMPLICATED TO MAKE AND TAKES A LOT OF TIME. IF YOU’RE NOT HAPPY GO FOR A SANDWICH IN A SNACK BAR. Never in my life have a seen this kind of unprofessional and inappropriate behaviour in a restaurant, especially from an owner. The owner justifying that it takes more time because we came, in reality 15 MINUTES LATER than foreseen, is not an excuse because the restaurant was not full, and when we arrived some other customers were already waiting for their dishes, meaning that if we would have arrived earlier they would have had more work. The owner calmed down later on, but no compensation or excuse was offered, as it would have been done in a professional and serious establishment. His insults concerning fast food and sandwich bars are unjustified, because you can also get quickly and well served in a gastronomic restaurant, this place being far from that.

Good food. Nice buffet. Prices have raised a lot.

0 stars. It doesn’t worth at all - the sushi was not good, some food was cold and the quality is not the best. The price is high for what the restaurant offer! Really disappointed, I don’t recommend.

Excellent range of cooked items, plus numerous items which can be cooked in front of you on demand. Sushi, oysters, duck and steak all on offer. All freshly prepared and regularly replenished. Deservedly popular and often busy.

Large choice of fresh and tasty food cooked in front of you

Lovely food .it's about €25pp but eat as much as you want .so go in hungry 😁

Not expensive a little away from the main street. Lots of space and a good buffet.

Good food at a reasonable price. Nice atmosphere

great pizza, tasty 👍

The owner was very polite and eager to serve us the best way possible. He was really interested in knowing if we liked the pizza. He makes the pizzas on his own in wood oven! The ingredients were very good. There was also homemade hot sauce! Even though the place doesn't look very nice, you can definitely trust the quality of the pizzas and fast service! There is also takeaway service. The prices really affordable!

Very friendly place. Pizza was amazing. Would definitely recommend visiting when you're in Bastogne

Excellent

Perfect pizza

Very tasty Pizza after Long Road Bike Ride with a nice hot selfmade spicy sauce . Very cool guys! Appreciate the visit :)

Very good Pizzas served by very friendly people.

It was breathtaking and full of life. It was an honor to visit.

The Recogne German Cemetery in Bastogne is a somber and reflective place. It reminds visitors of the heavy losses on both sides during the war, with countless names of very young soldiers who died far too early a really poignant and humbling experience.

ou don't normally get to see German cemeteries from WW2, so this is a nice exception. Free parking on site and free to enter, there are thousands of marked and unmarked graves of soldiers who died nearby

Very nice and sad place. It's a shame that so many good people died for a bad cause. Rest in peace.

Lest we forget! Even the German Military Cemeteries are worth a visit. It's just too sad that the men here have to share their graves.

A place of reflection and peace. They fought and died for their country, although the enemy, they deserve this dignified resting place

Place of rest car park space outside some seating.

good memorial, read about the history online before going

Saving life is always the highest honor

Small but wonderful memorial. Memorial surrounded by burnt wood to commemorate the bombing of the aid station.

So lovely that the nurses get the recognition they deserve.

Nice memorial

NUTS 🙂

Super

Nuts!

In the center of Bastogne, Belgium, stands a modest yet significant memorial dedicated to General Anthony McAuliffe, a key figure in World War II history. As the commanding officer of the 101st Airborne Division, McAuliffe played a crucial role during the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944. Under his leadership was the famed Easy Company of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, later immortalized in books and television. McAuliffe’s legacy is defined by his resolute defiance when German forces surrounded Bastogne and demanded his surrender. His response was a single, blunt word: “Nuts!” This simple yet powerful reply not only confused the Germans but also became a rallying cry for the American troops, symbolizing their unbreakable spirit. Despite harsh winter conditions and dwindling supplies, the 101st Airborne held their ground until General Patton’s Third Army arrived to break the siege. McAuliffe’s leadership and unshakable resolve turned Bastogne into a symbol of American determination. Today, the memorial in the town square serves as a tribute to his bravery and the sacrifices of those who fought alongside him, ensuring that the story of their heroism is never forgotten.

(Translated by Google) In honor and memory of American General Anthony McAuliffe. He was the interim commander of the U.S. 101st Airborne Division at the Battle of Bastogne during the Ardennes Offensive in December 1944. After the American troops in the city were completely surrounded, the Germans demanded their surrender. McAuliffe responded curtly and forcefully, "NUTS." This legendary remark made him famous, gave the besieged troops a tremendous boost, and became the symbol of the heroic American resistance. McAuliffe and his men were eventually relieved by the U.S. Third Army under General George Patton Jr. McAuliffe received the Distinguished Service Cross for his actions at Bastogne. (Original) Ter ere van en nagedachtenis aan de Amerikaanse Generaal Anthony McAuliffe. Hij was de tijdelijk bevelhebber van de Amerikaanse 101e Luchtlandingsdivisie bij de Slag om Bastogne, tijdens het Ardennenoffensief in december 1944. Nadat de Amerikaanse troepen in de stad volledig waren omsingeld eisten de Duitsers hun overgave, McAuliffe antwoorde kort en krachtig “NUTS”. Deze legendarische uitspraak maakte hem beroemd, gaf de zwaar belegerde troepen een enorme boost en werd het symbool van het heldhaftige verzet van de Amerikanen. McAuliffe en zijn manschappen werden uiteindelijk ontzet door het Amerikaanse 3e Leger onder leiding van generaal George Patton Jr. McAuliffe kreeg voor zijn optreden in Bastogne het Distinguished Service Cross.

Old Sherman tank along with several information boards to inform you about the US push towards Bastogne.

If you are close by then I recommend this place. It took us 15 minutes to see the turret and bunker and read all the texts. There are 2 free parking spaces and also one for handicapped.

I knew of this bunker before and when I saw it here I needed to check if it was true It is well maintained for the tourists to see

Beautiful memorial

This destroyed Sherman turret at the Bunker Assenois at Bastogne, the turret was one of a few placed at roads leading into Bastogne, these were place around Bastogne after the war, and all came from Sherman tanks found around Bastogne. These Turrets would mark the frontlines during the Battle of the Bulge and would show how far the Germans would have come. Most of the turrets were removed over the years and relocated. The Bunker Assenois is a pre-war Belgian Army bunker, that was the scene of the now famous breakthrough at Bastogne. Here C Company, 37th Tank Battalion (4th Armored Division) joined elements of the 326th Airborne Engineers (101st Airborne Division).

Fascinating

Assenois Bunker Site – Bastogne, Belgium The Assenois Bunker Site is a small but historically significant location situated just outside the village of Assenois, along the road connecting Bastogne to Neufchâteau and Luxembourg. This preserved German bunker, alongside a distinctive Sherman tank turret memorial, stands as a silent witness to one of the most dramatic moments of the Battle of the Bulge during World War II. In December 1944, Bastogne was surrounded by German forces in a fierce winter siege. The village of Assenois became a key breakthrough point when American forces of the 4th Armored Division, under General George S. Patton’s Third Army, fought their way through to relieve the besieged 101st Airborne Division. The bunker was part of the German defensive line protecting this approach. Today, visitors to the site will see the squat, concrete structure of the original wartime bunker, its heavy steel door still intact. Nearby stands a mounted Sherman tank turret, painted in olive drab with a white star, representing the American forces who played a crucial role in the liberation. These memorial elements form part of a wider series of turret monuments positioned around Bastogne to commemorate the Allied units involved. The Assenois Bunker Site offers a poignant reminder of the bitter fighting that took place in the freezing Ardennes countryside. Surrounded by peaceful fields and rural roads, the site invites reflection on the courage, hardship, and sacrifice of those who fought here. Informational panels provide context about the battle, the units involved, and the strategic importance of this location. Easily accessible by car, the site is a worthwhile stop for anyone touring the Bastogne area or traveling the Belgium–Luxembourg route. It combines authentic wartime remnants with symbolic memorials, offering a tangible link to one of World War II’s defining battles.

Nice bakery on the central square of the city of bastogne

Delicious bakery products and sandwiches! Don't miss season specials!

My goodness... What a mouthwatering selection of meats, salamis and breads they have here... Stopped here to grab something yummy to eat while I was cycling in the Ardennes.

Love it! Beautiful little town!!!

Excellent service and good quality baguette 🥖

Great sandwiches, I recomment "le texan"

Excellent

Delicious pizzas, great service! They took our group of 8 without reservation and were very accomodating in their romantique atmosphere in the second floor. We all loved the pizzas! A must try the one with potatoes and honey. Merci!

Huge, tasty, unique pizzas. We had a pizza with duck and truffle, another with pata negra and gorgonzola. A third with gruyere and salami. Not salty, not fat. Nice thin. Eat 3 pizze with 4 people. You would not expect to find the best pizza in the world (not unlikely) in Bastogne! Service could be better, a bit unorganised and - it was no problem - but they got our drinks order wrong twice :). Only cash payment. Nice seating outside on the terrace.

Terrible. Pizza with a raw egg in the middle (after a loooong wait), amateur personnel not speaking any English, boss smoking cigars with his friends inside (just a meter away from pizza preparation table) to suffocate guests, disgusting. Worst pizzeria ever (I visited hundreds worldwide) 🙄

Best.pizza we have had in years, friendly staff and owner

The pizza was great, they we’re very big so we had to take some home (witch isn’t a problem at all) very kind people and a very cozy place to be.

The best place im the world. Amazing pizza ❤❤❤

Best pizza I had in years. We had a tartufo and a Corleone. Both very tasty. Nice friendly service. Price /quality a recommendation.
